Woman gives explanation for calling off engagement two months before wedding

A Nigerian woman has revealed why she called off her engagement two months before her wedding.

The woman, who goes by @diaryofa9jagirl on X, disclosed that she called off her engagement without realizing how much money had been spent and gave her Aso Ebi back to everyone who had purchased it.

She claimed that by realizing she could not continue, having married for the wrong reasons, she had made the best choice.

Her words: “Broke off my engagement two months to the wedding. Hall paid for, popular comedian paid for, part payment for popular musician paid for. Vera Wang wedding dress paid for. Broke things off without thinking of all of that and returned everyone’s aso ebi money. I was getting married for the wrong reasons and I just couldn’t continue. I made one of the best decisions of my life.

“It wasn’t. Had to leave the country for a while to sit by the beach in Hawaii. Needed time alone to forgive myself.

“Because I was going to clock 30 and I don’t know who put it in my head that I had to be married at that time or it would be socially unacceptable to be unmarried at 30. When I complained to an older friend that it didn’t feel right because not only was I not in love but I had no rest in my spirit, she said I’d fall in love inside the marriage but to never let 30 pass me by. So I stayed despite the fact that he was a pathological liar and extremely untrustworthy.”
